What is mucilage propulsion mechanism?

Dear student.

Mucilage propulsion mechanisms is a process which helps in the locomotion of those protists, which do not have any organelle for locomotion. Mucilage is expelled forcefully through the pores present on the surface of the cell, this causes the forward movement. Example: Some members of cyanobacteria.

Regards.
